Automotive Refinishing Technician

Automotive Refinishing Technicians paint and refinish automobiles, trucks, and buses. Automotive Refinishing Technicians must calculate the amount of paint required for a job, mixing paint to exactly match existing colours, and blending paint to its correct thickness. These technicians use a spray gun to apply both the primer and final coats of paint and they're responsible for keeping up-to-date with new products and processes, and for maintaining records of materials used. This is a creative trade where colour matching and fine-finishing details are valuable skills.

An Automotive Refinishing Technician is designated as an Automotive Painter under the Interprovincial Standards Red Seal Program.
